Gnome session CoreDump due to libEGL_nvidia.so.0

Hi,

Staying on the 10th January repository gets rid of the problem.
I noticed the problem since xorg-1.19.

I use the proprietary Nvidia executable to install drivers.

My computer:
ASUS G750jw
No graphic chipset just GTX 765M card.

lspci :

user@arch_host:~ $ lspci | grep VGA
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK106M [GeForce GTX 765M] (rev a1)

When i use the up to date repositories Slice works but not Gnome.
I use Slice insteed of gdm.

Coredumpctl :

         PID: 564 (gnome-session-b)
           UID: 1000 (titusiii)

What would be the next steps to try and troubleshoot this problem ?

Cheers,
Titus

Re: Gnome session CoreDump due to libEGL_nvidia.so.0

Solved by removing :

rm /usr/lib/libEGL.so.1

And copying :

cp /usr/lib/nvidia/libEGL.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/libEGL.so.1

Re: Gnome session CoreDump due to libEGL_nvidia.so.0

a) please mark the topic as solved
b) did you install the nvidia blob bypassing the package manager? /usr/lib/libEGL.so.1 should be provided by nvidia-libgl and symlink /usr/lib/nvidia/libEGL.so.1
Just saying, because your "solution" likely won't sustain.

Re: Gnome session CoreDump due to libEGL_nvidia.so.0

tsss... missed. Thanks.

@titusIII if you want to use the beta drivers, there's an AUR package.
The way it is, you likely resolved libGL with the mesa variant and can expect trouble on each and every future upgrade.

Re: Gnome session CoreDump due to libEGL_nvidia.so.0

Package manager symlinks /usr/lib/nvidia/libEGL.so.1 on /usr/lib/libEGL.so.1
But in nvidia folder libEGL.so.1 and libEGL.so.1.0.0 are not same.
libEGL.so.1.0.0 is heavier.

The 1.0.0 file works but the .1 not.

Re: Gnome session CoreDump due to libEGL_nvidia.so.0

If that output was after you installed the nvidia packages from the official repositories please post the output of

$ pacman -Qkk nvidia nvidia-libgl nvidia-utils libglvnd

Re: Gnome session CoreDump due to libEGL_nvidia.so.0

If you resintall nvidia-libgl and libglvnd then check again for modifications assuming there are none the issue should still not occur but without you having to alter files tracked by pacman.
